Organic Reaction Mechanisms 2010 
An annual survey covering the literature dated January to December 2010

Organic Reaction Mechanisms 2010, the 46th annual volume in this highly successful and unique series, surveys research on organic reaction mechanisms described in the available literature dated 2010. It details the latest progress in a wide range of classes of organic reaction mechanisms, including reactions of different compounds and acids and their derivatives, oxidation and reduction, aliphatic substitutions, elimination reactions, and molecular rearrangements, to name a few. An experienced team of authors compiled these reviews, ensuring the quality of selection and presentation.
